Do you believe in ghosts?

Or spirits? Have an encounter? It's not real?


Post why or why not?

I think I had one: laying on my couch, caught a weird object off the corner of my wall (apartment where kitchen and living room connected)

I thought I was just seeing things, but my cat also saw it and ran towards it...

And no my cats not ******ed

No. There's no evidence for it.

Everyone should feel free to fire away with the anecdotal stuff that 'convinced' them, though. Then they can get mad when it's pointed out that there claims are shoddy at best.

Nah.

That was probably just a weird reflection from outside man.

I don't but I have had two weird events happen to me.

My Uncle (not by blood) passed away prematurely from cancer. Like six months later I had an odd dream about him. I had an uncharacteristic dream where I was in a small gas station parking lot. It was a nice location in a quaint rural area, very clean. I was standing at a corner of the exterior of the property and cars went by. Then my Uncle approached me and urgently wanted to talk to me. I, uncharacteristically, knew I was asleep and asked my Uncle if he knew he was dead and he just nodded his head and kind of motioned that it didn't matter because what he had to say was more important. He said he tried getting through to my mom (his widows sister) but wasn't able to so he was talking to me (gee thanks, right?). Anyways, he said very quickly and sternly that someone was at his funneral (he didn't have a funneral, it was a viewing but I knew what he was talking about) that "was not supposed to be there." He didn't tell me who it was but it was petty ****ing clear I was to tell this to my mom. My dream just abrutly ended and I awoke. I was shaken so I called my GF (now fiance) in the middle of the night and she acted like it was nothing too crazy. She said he wouldn't be able to get through to my mom because she was a Christian and the dead are not able to communicate with them. I personally don't buy that crap, but w/e. Anyways, I knew this was a different dream to say the least so I told my mom who was intrigued. She said nothing weird had happend but she would keep any ear out. She told her sister and she was just silent on it. Anyways, fast forward like 2-3 years we find out that my Aunt was dating some deadbeat that owned a bar in town and that she had been seeing him while my Uncle was on his deathbed. He was sick for awhile. It turns out he was at my Uncles viewing and they got real close. When my Uncle passed away my Aunt was the beneficiary of his life insurance policy and received a few hundred thousand dollars. My mom told her to pay off her house and be wise with the money but she ignored her and spend ALL of the money on vacations and her new friend. As soon as the money was gone so was her new friend. He left her with uncollectable loans and debt. As a consequence, her health deteriated and she lost her home to foreclosure. She's been using a walker to get around since she was 55 and I think its due to my Uncles death and her scumbag boyfriend. It was a weird dream before but it became even weirder after I learned of these things. If I were supersticious and believed in these things, I would question whether I ****ed up by not figuring out what was so urgent sooner. Luckily I'm not a believer .
